Description
本発明は、プロトカテク酸低含有率の没食子酸含有組成物の製造方法に関する。 The present invention relates to a method for producing a gallic acid-containing composition with a low content of protocatechuic acid.
没食子酸(分子式:C7H6O5、別名:3,4,5-トリヒドロキシ安息香酸)は、還元力が強く、還元剤、写真の現像剤に用いられている。また、鉄塩の形成により着色する性質があるためインクの製造等にも用いられている。さらに、没食子酸からは没食子酸エステル等の数多くの誘導体が得られ、それらは食品分野、電子材料分野等の様々な分野において広く用いられている。 Gallic acid (molecular formula: C7H6O5, also known as 3,4,5-trihydroxybenzoic acid) has strong reducing power and is used as a reducing agent and photographic developer. It is also used in the manufacture of inks because of its ability to color by forming iron salts. Furthermore, numerous derivatives such as gallic acid esters can be obtained from gallic acid, and these are widely used in various fields such as the food industry and electronic materials industry.
没食子酸の製造は、以前より、植物ヌルデの五倍子より抽出したタンニンをアルカリや酸、酵素を利用して加水分解することで製造されているが、残存タンニン含量が高い場合があること、製造コストが高いこと等の理由から、工業的に有利に製造する方法が検討されている。最近では、微生物を利用して、芳香族カルボン酸やグルコース等の安価な原料から没食子酸を製造する方法が報告されている(特許文献1、2)。 Gallic acid has been produced by hydrolyzing tannins extracted from the gallnuts of the Rhus chinensis plant using alkali, acid, or enzymes, but because the residual tannin content can be high and the production costs are high, studies are being conducted to develop an industrially advantageous method of production. Recently, a method of producing gallic acid from inexpensive raw materials such as aromatic carboxylic acids and glucose using microorganisms has been reported (Patent Documents 1 and 2).
特許文献1では、微生物の培養により製造した没食子酸含有水溶液を一度冷却して粗結晶を得た後、再度その粗結晶を再溶解して結晶を析出させることにより低鉄含有量の没食子酸含有組成物を得ている。
また、特許文献2では、大腸菌によりグルコースを原料にして得た発酵培養液から、貧溶媒晶析によって没食子酸を得たことが報告されている。
In Patent Document 1, a gallic acid-containing aqueous solution produced by culturing a microorganism is cooled once to obtain crude crystals, and then the crude crystals are redissolved again to precipitate crystals, thereby obtaining a gallic acid-containing composition with a low iron content.
Moreover, Patent Document 2 reports that gallic acid was obtained by crystallization in a poor solvent from a fermentation culture solution obtained by using glucose as a raw material with Escherichia coli.
しかしながら、微生物培養液中にはプロトカテク酸(分子式:C7H6O4)が副生成物として含まれ、晶析後の結晶中にもプロトカテク酸が混在することが判明した。
従って、本発明は、微生物培養液から、晶析操作によってプロトカテク酸低含有率の没食子酸含有組成物を製造する方法を提供することに関する。
However, it was found that the microbial culture broth contained protocatechuic acid (molecular formula: C7H6O4) as a by-product, and that protocatechuic acid was also present in the crystals after crystallization.
Therefore, the present invention relates to a method for producing a gallic acid-containing composition having a low content of protocatechuic acid from a microbial culture solution by a crystallization procedure.
本発明者は、鋭意検討を行ったところ、没食子酸及びプロトカテク酸を含む水溶液を所定の条件下で冷却して結晶を析出させると、プロトカテク酸低含有率の没食子酸含有組成物が得られることを見出した。 After extensive research, the inventors discovered that a gallic acid-containing composition with a low content of protocatechuic acid can be obtained by cooling an aqueous solution containing gallic acid and protocatechuic acid under specified conditions to precipitate crystals.
すなわち、本発明は、没食子酸及びプロトカテク酸を含む水溶液(a)を、0.9℃/min以下で冷却晶析させる工程(A)を含む、没食子酸含有組成物の製造方法を提供するものである。 That is, the present invention provides a method for producing a gallic acid-containing composition, which includes a step (A) of cooling and crystallizing an aqueous solution (a) containing gallic acid and protocatechuic acid at a rate of 0.9°C/min or less.
本発明の方法によれば、微生物を利用して、プロトカテク酸低含有率の没食子酸含有組成物を得ることができる。 According to the method of the present invention, a gallic acid-containing composition with a low content of protocatechuic acid can be obtained using microorganisms.

また、没食子酸含有組成物の没食子酸の含有量に対するプロトカテク酸の含有量の質量比〔プロトカテク酸/没食子酸〕は0.038であった。平均結晶短径は10.2μmであった。
[Example 8]
The same procedure as in Example 5 was carried out except that the amount of the protocatechuic acid reagent added was changed.
The concentration of gallic acid in the obtained aqueous solution was 75.6 g/L, the concentration of protocatechuic acid was 5.4 g/L, and the mass ratio of the content of protocatechuic acid to the content of gallic acid [protocatechuic acid/gallic acid] was 0.071.
The mass ratio of the content of protocatechuic acid to the content of gallic acid in the gallic acid-containing composition [protocatechuic acid/gallic acid] was 0.038. The average crystal minor axis was 10.2 μm.
表1及び表2より明らかなように、没食子酸及びプロトカテク酸を含む水溶液を平均冷却速度が0.9℃/min以下という条件で冷却することで、水溶液に比べてプロトカテク酸が低含有率の没食子酸含有組成物が得られることが確認された。また、当該プロトカテク酸が低含有率の没食子酸含有組成物は、プロトカテク酸を含有しない没食子酸と比べて、結晶が針状化することが確認された。 As is clear from Tables 1 and 2, it was confirmed that by cooling an aqueous solution containing gallic acid and protocatechuic acid under conditions where the average cooling rate is 0.9°C/min or less, a gallic acid-containing composition having a lower content of protocatechuic acid compared to the aqueous solution can be obtained. It was also confirmed that the gallic acid-containing composition having a low content of protocatechuic acid forms needle-shaped crystals compared to gallic acid that does not contain protocatechuic acid.
